Specific learning disorders. Natural history and current views.
Each professional, whether pediatrician, neurologist, psychiatrist, psychologist or teacher, in evaluating behavioral, neuromuscular, and emotional factors with the tools of his discipline, can arrive independently at very similar views regarding etiology and diagnosis of learning and language disorders. Even though this is possible, it is essential to have the many disciplines work together. This manner of sharing information is not only supportive to the patient, but to the physician as well. The pediatrician's role does not stop, however, with the diagnosis, but continues with the working through of problems that the child and parents present to one another.
